Inhalt: Children’s Literature is a lively, though not unproblematic genre. Its history is relatively short: after earlier traditions of mainly religious and didactic writing, “modern” children’s books only started appearing in the nineteenth century. The course will trace the history, forms, and ideologies of British Children’s Literature from its inception through its supposed “golden age” in the early twentieth century to modern and postmodern expressions, all the way to its fusions with fantasy and science fiction.
